Engaged employees are generally more satisfied with their work, committed and effective at work. According to the JDR model (Schaufeli and Bakker, 2004), engagement may be produced by two ty...
In vitro ACE-inhibitory peptide KGYGGVSLPEW facilitates noradrenaline release f...
Marques, Cláudia; Amorim, Maria Manuela; Pereira, Joana Odila; Guardão, Luísa; Martins, Maria João; Pintado, Manuela Estevez; Moura, DanielThis study aimed to validate the antihypertensive activity of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitor whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) obtained through the action of proteolytic enzymes fromCynara Cardunculus. The antihypertensive activity of WPH fractions containing peptides with molecularweight below 3 kDa (Whey < 3 kDa) and 1 kDa (Whey < 1 kDa) along with the antihypertensive activity ofthree potent ...

Fracture toughness determination of adhesive and co-cured joints in natural fib...
Campilho, Raul; Moura, Daniel; Gonçalves, Daniel J. S.; Silva, João; Banea, Mariana D.; Silva, Lucas F. M. daAdhesive bonding has become more efficient in the last few decades due to the adhesives developments, granting higher strength and ductility. On the other hand, natural fibre composites have recently gained interest due to the low cost and density. It is therefore essential to predict the fracture behavior of joints between these materials, to assess the feasibility of joining or repairing with adhesives. In th...
Carbon monoxide intoxications in Portugal.
Sá, Márcia Christel; Rodrigues, Rui Paulo; Moura, DanielThe prevalence of carbon monoxide intoxication in the World shows that this is a common situation. In Portugal, there are no concrete data available in literature and its incidence remains unknown. Currently, the use of hyperbaric oxygen is a valid therapeutic for carbon monoxide poisoning management. However, its effectiveness and its proper handling are still controversial. The first aim of this study was to ...
